Yes I agree.  But until we get the basics working it's going to be a
slow migration from other systems to the *great* freevo.

What I want right now (my mrs uses this box, and we use unencrypted
DVB-T only) is something that can:
i) record based on timers.
ii) pause live TV
iii) change channel's based on timer priorities.

VDR does this well, which is why I use it.  But if freevo is nearly
there I'm happy to help with things like testing and *simple* fixes.
But I'm much of a coder..
